Still the begining I want to tell you that I have the pleasure to be invited by Deena Kelly, GlogsterEDU director, and I received a phone from Justin Landis to take part like a GlogsterEDU Ambassador http://dumacornellucian.edu.glogster.com/ to Intel Teach Essentials organized in Prague between 22 - 25 may 2012 . I must told you that I tried in last 3 years many times to make a Intel Teach Course here in Romania , but I find only online on http://iteach.ro/ . I have the surprise to find that our trainer is Ollie Bray, that I meet on the elearning platform of Smile Project managed by European Schoolnet who is National Adviser for Emerging Technologies in Learning at LTScotland .

Also we have a brilliant Intel Education trainer from UK Ruth Merrett who was in our project team in the right ( Marta and Mihaela ) and help us in our unit project and I learn from her how to make a succesful project and a lot of things .
